Did anyone have a problem with Constipation after being banded. I am 4 days banded and since I have been on liquids I think that might have something to do with it. Does / did anyone else have this problem and what did you do to help it along? Thanks.

I have the opposite effect, on day 4 and ever since (day 8 now) I have taken some pretty BAD poo's, sometimes up to 4 times a day. All i have is 2 apple juice boxes and Water a day. Nothing else, where is it coming from? I think it may be from the antibiotics I'm on.

Stacey, I had the major poohs, too. Nasty & rumbly to the point I thought something was horribly wrong, so I ran to Urgent Care. They ran tons of tests but nothing was wrong. It was just years worth of built up sludge from way inside my colon & guts, I suppose. Sorry to get gross, but we're all in the same boat.

Apple juice will make you have poos if you drink too much...So depending on the problem... you may want to look at how much you are drinking :)
